THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS star Eric Braeden on Gun Control: "The More Guns That Are Available, the More Tragedies Will Happen"
"My view of guns is very simple. The more guns that are available, the more tragedies will happen. Period. Out. Gone. I know I’m going to hang a lot of people now, but I have to say what I truly believe. I’m very old fashioned that way. If you have disputes, use your fists. Don’t teach kids in school not to fight. That’s all normal. If I were in charge, I’d say to the teacher, 'When you see a bully beat up a smaller boy, tell the bully that you’ll get another boy for him who’s just as strong.' Let the two of them fight it out. Don’t let the bully take it out on the smaller guy. That’s not nice."

"This entire notion of violence being expressed through the barrel of a gun is so unmanly. It is so cowardly, I think."
